Girona FC Secures Marlex Renewal for 2026/27 Season
Girona FC have secured a key off-pitch win, tying down Marlex as a main partner through the 2026/27 season in a deal that underlines both local pride and long-term ambition.
The agreement extends a relationship that began in the 2023/24 campaign, keeping the Human Resources firm’s logo on the back of the first team shirt and firmly embedded across the club’s youth structure. Visibility for Marlex, stability for Girona. Both sides know exactly what they are getting.
For president Delfí Geli, the renewal lands as a statement of faith in the club’s wider project, not just its league position.
“We are very pleased that Marlex continues to stand by us for another season. Their confidence in the project demonstrates the strength of the relationship we have built over the years and allows us to keep moving forward with the support of companies that share our values and our way of understanding the Club's growth,” Geli said, framing the deal as another building block in Girona’s institutional development.
The partnership is rooted in geography as much as strategy. Marlex is a Girona-born company and has grown into one of the leading Human Resources firms on the peninsula, with more than 80 offices and three decades of experience. The club see that local success story as a mirror of their own aspirations: a regional reference point aiming to consolidate itself at the highest level.
That connection was front and centre in the words of Marlex CEO Àlex Sanabras.
“As a company from Girona, continuing alongside Girona FC is a testament to our commitment to the Club and the city that has seen us born and grow. We are starting a new season where it will be necessary to stay united to make the Club's return to the first division possible. Now more than ever, orgull gironí,” he said.
The message is clear: this is not a simple logo-for-cash arrangement. The club and company repeatedly lean on the same vocabulary — attitude, commitment, teamwork — as shared values that “go beyond the résumé” and, in their view, have turned a sponsorship into a long-term alliance.
For Girona, pushing to return to the first division demands more than a competitive squad. It requires a stable ecosystem, with local businesses prepared to buy into the vision and ride out the pressure of promotion races and financial demands.
With Marlex locked in until 2026/27 and their name stitched into both the senior and youth set-ups, Girona FC have one more pillar in place for that climb back to the top. The football will decide the rest.
